I’m a young 26 year that first experienced my first pancreatitis at 16. Now chronic pancreatitis- I have been living with phases of hospitalisations from severe acute pancreatitis attacks (more so when I was younger), currently ongoing constant pain, sometimes extremely severe, recently just on-going pain everyday for months. It is greatly impacting my quality of life and mental health. I am physically and mentally exhausted from dealing with this so frequently at such a young age when I’m trying to get my life going career wise and everything in between. I have been tested for everything and doctors have still to this day not been able to determine the cause. I do have a pseudocyst on my pancreas which they monitor. But no answer to me of how and why, adding to the frustration for me. Doctors, who have tested for everything basically just prescribe me pain meds and advise me to monitor my pain and that’s really all I’ve been given. If anyone has anyone advice or insight or help, anything could help.
Thank you
